That a number of things were brought to the attention of the jury by the prosecution which were not pertiment to the case at issue can not be denied, yet these things must of necessity have had their bearing on the minds of the jury. That the prosecution showed personal animus, at times, will make many feel its un fairness, is also true. The question of a right or wrong verdict will not enter into the ordi nary discussion of this matter. A feeling of infinite sorrow and regret will fill all the friends of the aged senator.

Fimuui NovclUt THE REASONS WHY HY set men and women to choose their destiny while blindfolded by love or powaioti AND THEN PUN ISH THEM FOR LIFE fr choosing wrong? While the words of Christ- "What, therefore, God huth join ed together let no man put asunder" contain u great, undeniable truth, it is no less true that all marriages aro NOT God made. When the lust of the flesh or the lust of the eye or the prid.- of life joins man and woman the putting asunder is au easy matter. I am far from thinking that in all such cases divorce is a proper remedy. The highest discipline of life makes us suller for our MISTAKES as well as for our crimes. IF WOMEN KNOWINGLY MARRY DRUNKEN AND BRUTAL MEN, AND MEN KNOWINGLY MARRY SILLY WOMEN, UNLESS THERE FOLLOWS SOME FLAGRANT CRUELTY THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO CRY FOR RELEASE.

His charge to the jury demonstrated a willingness on his part to give the defense and the prosecution each a fair deal. The eastern press, now that Sen ator Mitchell is meeting with revers es, pounce upon him like a pack of hungry wolves upon a lamb, display ing in many instances the rankest ig norance of the merits and demerits of the case, all of which, however, has a tendency to prejudice the higher courts in which Mitchell may yet have a hearing.

To condemn the woman who has sought relief from unendurable ills in the divorce court to celibacy for the rest of her days ia immoral and cruel. I can conceive of BUT ONE CAUSE for divorce which should carrv with it a prohibition of remarriage, and that is insanity. Those who would deny them this privilege must eonfesi to absolute ignorance of human nature. If, on the other hand, the woman is the innocent party, what RIGHT has the law to add injustice to injury and condemn her to solitude for life, rinding the bread and bearing the burdens SOME OTHER would gladly find and tear for her ( I cannot agree with those who argue that the prohibition of divorce would tend to add to the purity .if society.
